The model
Read full reviewThe Peugeot 508 SW is certainly more practical than the 508 saloon, with a boot capacity that's slightly up on the Audi A4 Avant and BMW 3 Series Touring. However, while the 508 SW has an attractive interior and comes well equipped, it doesn't drive as well as those premium offerings and isn't as spacious or comfortable as cheaper estates from the likes of Skoda. It isn't a bad choice if you're swayed by the looks, but there are plenty of estates that are easier to recommend.
The trim
See full equipmentOn top of regular Allure trim, you get adaptive cruise control, a gesture-controlled electric tailgate, electric tilt adjustment for the seat base and manually adjustable under-thigh support and two extra USB ports in the back. We’d stick to the regular Allure.
The engine
See full engine specsThis 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol is the cheapest engine in the range. With 128bhp, it’s good for a 0-62mph time of 10sec with competitive CO2 emissions and claimed economy of almost 50mpg. We’re yet to try it in the 508 SW, although it has impressed in other Peugeots.
